BANGALORE: Red Hat has announced that it would not release any new versions of its Red Hat Linux line. It will also discontinue maintenance on Red Hat Linux 7.x and 8.0 by the end of 2003, and on Red Hat 9.0 by the end of April, 2004.
Red Hat will be providing its Red Hat Linux customers 50% off the purchase of up to 10 units of Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS and ES Basic editions through February 29th, 2004. Customers who take the opportunity to migrate now will also be able to renew their second year's subscription at the same price. Third year renewals would take place at standard price.
For free Linux distributions, Red Hat has also started the Fedora Project in late 2003. Built for and with the help of the open source community, the Fedora Project is for developers and high-tech enthusiasts using Linux in non-critical computing environments and for people interested in active participation in the development process.
Red Hat has recently rolled out a new upgrade scalable Enterprise Linux version 3, which costs $179 per year for a single workstation, including basic support, and nearly $3000 per year for the top-end server version, including 24/7 phone support.
